  • Pictures in the albums I want but now how do I re sync my iPad and iPhone with them?

    ok I got my pictures in the albums I want but now how do I re sync my iPad and iPhone with them?

    Are you using iCloud Photo Library? Then syncing is automatic and your mobile devices should be showing the same albums automatically.
    See:  iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ
    If you are not sing iCloud Photo Library, use iTunes to sync selected albums to your mobile devices.
    For more information and instructions for transferring photos using iTunes, open iTunes, then choose Help > iTunes Help, or see:  iOS: Syncing photos using iTunes

    Hello Tamthom,
    It sounds like you would like to sync your phone to your new computer. I would start by using the following article to transer your iTunes and App Store purchases to your computer from your phone.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
    Note: If you had content that was not purchased from the iTunes Store you will need to re import the content from its original media, to your iTunes library separately.
    Then backup your device to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    After your puchases are transferred, and your device is backed up you can Erase and Sync the device, and restore your backup to it, that way moving forward you can sync it like you used to.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • How do I get my iPad to synch with my new computer?  It keeps referring to my old computer.

    How do I get my iPad to synch with my new computer?  It keeps referring to my old computer.

    IMO - and we are all entitled to our own opinions - I prefer to use iTunes. Heaven forbid if Apples servers ever go down - there will be mass hysteria and I have seen too many cases of "I just tried to restore from my iCloud backup and it have 8 gazillion app icons on the screen that say "waiting" - but once again - this is only my opinion.
    And if you lose your Internet connection in the middle of an iCloud restore - what then? Nobody thinks of that kind of stuff - but hey - that's what makes this whole exchange of ideas so wonderful. We can all express our own opinions  .... but that does not help you solve your situation.
    What exactly is happening when you try to sync with iTunes? Maybe somebody can offer help instead of just useless opinions that do nothing to resolve your situation.

  • How do I sync my Ipod Classic 160gb with my new computer (windows 8). It synced with my old computer (windows XP) but not with my new one (windows8)

    How do I sync my Ipod Classic 160gb with my new computer (Windows8).? It synced with my old computer (WindowsXP) but will not do so on the new computer?

    Hi Lechwe,
    I had this issue recently, due to changing HD for an SSD.
    In my case, since the library in my iPod was synced to the HD it was not syncing to the library in the SSD, though they were the same (had the same contents).
    I found there's this checkbox in iTunes > iPod > [Settings] Music, called "Sync Music". Mine was unchecked, I guess due to iPod being synced to the old library. I marked the checkbox and clicked then in Sync. iTunes asked me if I was sure I wanted to sync the iPod with the "new" library, i clicked yes, and the it started determining the song to sync. Since the library was essentially the same (just a couple songs more in the new one), it synced the couple new songs and that was it.
    Hope it helps!
    Regards,
    Awlo.

  • When trying to backup and sync my ipad and iphone with itunes the device does not appear int he upper right hand corner anymore

    when trying to backup and sync my ipad and iphone to itunes it does not appear in the upper right hand corner under devices for me to click on

    In that same window - the one where you see your backups - click on the box at the bottom that say -Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads form syncing automatically. Then click OK and quit iTunes.
    Connect your iPad to the computer and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPad name on the left side under the devices heading and select - Restore from backup. A window will pop up from which you can select any of the backups that you have for the iPad. Select the backup that you want to restore from and then go agreed and restore the iPad. Sync with iTunes when you are done.
    Remember that when you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup to the iPad. You cannot selectively restore content. It is all or none.

    While it isn't as easy to just use a Mac iDevice as media storage as Android and Windows, you can add documents and such like Word, PDF and others manually in iTunes to have them sync as well.

  • Can i sync an ipad and iphone on the same computer

    I've got an iPhone 3GS and am thinking of getting an iPad 2 as well.  How does syncing the 2 devices on the same computer work?  Also, can I share Apps that I have purchased across the 2 devices, or do you have to pay for them twice?

    I am syncing my iPad and my iPod Touch using iTunes on the same computer.
    It's even possible to connect both devices at the same time to iTunes.
    Yes, apps are shared between devices, but only if those apps are actually able to run on both devices.
    You therefore only need to buy a certain app once and use it on your two devices.
    Your devices are in fact administratively attached to your Apple ID.

  • How can I sync apps from my iphone to a new computer

    I did a restore today on my 3G. When I synced it to my new laptop (After a backup) my Iphone is now missing all my apps.
    I tried to resync it to my old computer and its saying im not permitted to do that. Can I get my apps off my old computer and into my new computer so when I sync they all return onto my phone?
    Thanks

    Yes - they are in ~/Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications. First, in iTunes > Store menu, select Authorize Computer, then make sure you're signed into your iTunes Store account. Then copy the apps over from the old computer (use a flash drive, target disk mode, etc.). Then sync your iPhone to the new computer.

  • HT201272 How can I sync my iPad and iPhone without a PC?

    How can I sync iPad to iPhone, so I can download a purchased TV movie?   Is there a way to reset the security questions?

    You can download all previous purchases to any device ascociated to your account, just go in the iTunes app on your device and go to the more section then to the purchases and find your desired purchase to redownload. As for reseting security questions it is possible, it's best to attempt to do it on your computer as doing it on your device isn't ideal. https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/

  • How do I sync my iPad and iPhone?

    How do I sync my iPhone and iPad?

    Go to Settings>iCloud on either your iPhone or iPad, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, then turn on the data you want to sync (contacts, calendars, reminders, notes, etc.).  If you want to use iCloud email (or want to sync notes, which requires an iCloud email account), turn on Mail and choose your iCloud email address.  If you want to stream photos take on one device to the other, tap Photos, then turn on My Photo Stream (and also Photo Sharing if you want to share any of your photos with others).  If you want to be able to locate your device when lost, and to enable the activation lock security measure, turn on Find My iPhone (highly recommended).  If you want to back up your device to iCloud tap Storage & Backup and turn on iCloud Backup.
    Once you have these settings the way you want them, go to Settings>iCloud on your other device, sign in with the same iCloud ID and turn on the same settings.  After that, iCloud will keep your data consistent between your iPhone and iPad and (optionally) stream photos between them and back them up to iCloud.

  • Trying to sync my iPad and iPhone to a new account without losing all information

    Okay here is the situation.  I have an iPhone and an iPad all synced to my iTunes's account.  My fiancé has as iPhone and our new iMac synced to his iTunes account.  I am fully aware that you cannot merge two accounts.  We would like to use his as our primary account since that's what we set up on our iMac. How can I sync the iPhone and the iPad without losing all the information on both?

    You will need to connect both to your computer via your USB cord then launch iTunes.  Take a look at this link, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386

  • I changed my ID and password for itunes on a new Sony Computer.  I cna't figure out how to now change my ipad and iphone to this new id and password.  How do I do this on ipad and iphone as old id keeps popping up?

    I changed my Itunes ID and Password through a Sony Computer but now can't access itunes on my ipad or iphone.  I can't locate the place on these two devices that allow me to change my ID and Password .  Where do I go?

    On each device - go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap the old ID and sign out. Them sign in with new ID.
    You have to perform this step on both devices in order to be signed in on each device.
